Ananthrakrishnan, it has been observed that the second (lateral) pair of postocular 

 setae are usually acute in the female but expanded apically in the male, and the third 

 sub-basal wing seta is acute in the male but expanded in the female. A paratype 

 female and male of consanguineus have been examined.

Ecacanthothrips spinipes (Bagnall) comb. n. 



Phloeothrips spinipes Bagnall, 1908c : 195-196. 



There are about fourteen sensoria on antennal III of the unique female holotype 

 of this species. From sanguineus it can be distinguished by the shorter head, 

 unarmed femora, and broader reticulations laterally on the pelta. The postocular 

 seta has a widely expanded assymetric apex and almost reaches the base of the 

 antenna. The fore wings are damaged but there are probably more than twenty 

 accessory cilia.

EIDOTHRIPS Bagnall 



Eidothrips Bagnall, 1918a : 219. Type-species E. alluaudi, by monotypy. 



This genus is distinguished from the others in the Bactrothrips group by the 

 presence of lateral processess on abdominal segments five and six in the male and the 

 absence of processes from segments seven and eight. The spiracles on segment eight 

 are small and round as in Bactridothrips, Bactrianothrips and Cervothrips. 



Eidothrips alluaudi Bagnall 



Eidothrips alluaudi Bagnall, 1918a : 219-220. 



The internal epimeral seta is very small and the base of antennal III is shaded 

 although the rest of the segment is pale. Moulton (1930b : 416) has recorded 

 females of this species from Zululand. The type locality is in Kenya not Uganda as 

 stated originally.
